It is Indeed India, it from the republic day parade from 26th January. The camels are not used for artillery though, they are just used for the border patrol where the border passes through the dunes

Didn't expect them to actually be used in battle. Kinda surprised they still use them at all outside of ceremonies though. I guess they're better than jeeps in the mountainous boarder regions.

India and Pakistan share the Thar desert. I doubt Camels are used much these days in a war. But they do look amazing in parades. I believe this is from the Indian Republic Day parade which is celebrated on January 26th.
